Initially, the news circulated only in a small circle within certain departments, suggesting that Jiang Si and Chi Heng had an unusual relationship.
But as the story spread, it started to feel a bit off.
What was clearly a normal work-related exchange was inexplicably twisted into a secret rendezvous between a man and a woman by some people.
In other words, there are no partitions in Jiang Si's office, otherwise a "sit for a while" might be mistaken for a "stay for a while"!
Upon seeing that Jiang Si's office door was tightly closed, someone couldn't help but click their tongue twice.
"Hey, did you know? Last Thursday afternoon, Engineer Jiang and Assistant Chi spent over an hour in the office again!"
These words quickly caught the attention of the others in the group.
"No way, just the two of them?"
"Of course! The door was locked tight. Who knows what the two of them were doing in there!"
During the conversation, someone suddenly recalled the previous visit.
"No wonder it was so strange. Miss Chris is polite to everyone, but she turns into a madman when she's with Engineer Jiang."
That was the first time the two of them had met. Who would believe there wasn't something fishy going on?
"What's so strange about that?"
The person who spoke earlier looked completely at ease.
"She must have done something shady, touched something she shouldn't have!"
"Otherwise, would Miss Chris have dared to criticize her in front of so many people?"
For a time, two women were vying for one man.
The talk of jealousy and rivalry over love is endless.
This is a classic case of victim blaming!
"Hey, you know what? I heard something else too."
Seeing that everyone was interested in listening, the man said a few more words, "Actually, the higher-ups initially wanted to recommend her to Tsinghua University, but she declined."
"No, why?" someone asked, puzzled.
"What else could it be? Of course, it's because there are people here who are more concerned about me."
Otherwise, who would waste such a good opportunity?
As for why she would turn down a good family like the Huo family and instead engage in promiscuous relationships outside, it's not hard to understand.
Comrade Huo is a good person and a promising young man.
But distant water can't quench a nearby fire!
Only those who have experienced it know how bitter life is when they live apart from their loved ones.
Of course, they only dared to say these things behind people's backs.
After all, Jiang Si is now a popular figure in the company and is highly valued by the leaders.
Her husband's family is a very influential and powerful force in Beijing.
People must be so bored and have nothing better to do than dance in front of the person in question.
So, in the end, the man sighed, "If you ask me, it's no wonder she was targeted by Miss Chris. As the old saying goes, it takes two to tango..."
He hadn't finished speaking.
With a "smack"!
The man received a solid slap across the face.
His face was slapped so hard it was twisted.
"Qi Xiaoyue!"
Realizing what was happening, she immediately glared at him, "Are you crazy? You actually hit me!"
"Didn't you say it takes two to tango?"
Qi Xiaoyue shook her hand, which was sore from the beating, and said, "If I ever hear you gossiping about Engineer Jiang behind his back again, I'll beat you up every time I see you!"
It takes two to tango, doesn't it?
She asked, "Will it ring or not?"
The person who was slapped was a long-time employee at the company, and in front of so many people, he was slapped by a young girl who had only been there for a short time.
She couldn't possibly swallow this insult.
By the time everyone realized what was happening, it was too late; she and Qi Xiaoyue were already locked in a fierce battle!
"Thump, thump, thump—"
Jiang Si was discussing staffing details with her assistant when a knock on the door interrupted their thoughts.
"Is there something you need?" Jiang Si asked in surprise when she saw that the other person was a stranger.
The other person, panting, said urgently, "Engineer Jiang, you'd better go and see! Assistant Qi is fighting with someone!"
"They've started fighting?" Jiang Si was very surprised to hear this.
Xiao Qi has been following her for several months. Although this girl has a somewhat fiery temper, she knows how to be tactful.
She is well-liked at work.
Everyone says in private that she's the office's ray of sunshine.
"Do you know why they fought?" Jiang Si asked as she came downstairs, still too shocked to speak.
"this……"
Upon hearing this, the man hesitated.
These days, relationships between men and women are a major taboo; if handled poorly, they can ruin one's reputation.
It's no wonder that Assistant Qi was so angry when he heard this that he took action.
Seeing his predicament, Jiang Si didn't ask any more questions.
Soon, the two arrived at the first floor.
From afar, Jiang Si saw Xiao Qi riding on the back of a middle-aged woman.
At that moment, she was like a cat with its fur standing on end.
Even with four or five people pulling on him, they couldn't budge him.
"I'll teach you to talk nonsense! Apologize to me right now! If you don't apologize, I'll knock all your teeth out!"
"I'm not talking nonsense!" the woman retorted, spitting out a loud "Pui!" "So many people at work are saying it, it's not just me. If you're so capable, go ahead and beat them all up!"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the people who were trying to break up the fight instantly turned sour.
"Alright, Sister Xu, just say less."
"Xiao Qi, calm down. We're still at work. What will it look like if we alert the boss?"
Bah! That's easy for you to say. It's not like they're the ones who get scolded and beaten.
"So be it, let's make a scene!"
Sister Xu was furious at the moment, and she started shouting, "If she's capable, why is she afraid of what others say?"
"Besides, how can this be kept secret? All those neighboring units are watching our people like they're monkeys every day."
